Recently, immersive cultural tourism has become a craze, and the "New Experience of Immersive Cultural Tourism" released by "CCTV News" introduced that the organic combination of digital technology and cultural tourism space has made cultural tourism resources "come alive" and improved the travel experience of tourists.
In addition to the cultural tourism industry, the integration and innovation of the education industry and immersive technology have also made great progress. Immersive interactive classrooms have played a positive role in improving teaching quality and efficiency.
Next, take the immersive interactive classrooms in kindergartens and primary schools as examples to analyze the help of immersive and situational interactive classrooms to improve the comprehensive quality of children and teenagers.
Imagination
If curiosity is a child's innate nature. Imagination, then, is the most important ability for children to explore the unknown.
Although everyone knows the importance of imagination, traditional textbooks are basically flat and two-dimensional. The traditional teaching method is teacher-centered, indoctrination-style. It is difficult to satisfy children's curiosity and not conducive to cultivating children's imagination.
The course content of the immersive interactive classroom is three-dimensional, interactive experience, children can be in the vast universe, deep ocean, magical rainforest and other scenes** learning, can fully satisfy children's curiosity, stimulate children's imagination.
Observation and imitation
It is a well-known fact that after watching a picture book or a cartoon, children will soon be able to imitate the expressions, movements and tones of the characters and animals in it, and it will be vivid. This is mainly due to the children's outstanding observation and imitation skills.
The immersive interactive classroom is based on the two abilities of children and teenagers, creating a series of story-based and life-oriented interactive courses, allowing children to carefully observe how astronauts conduct space exploration, dolphins forage in the underwater world, how polar bears live in the cold Arctic, and how human digestive organs work in the virtual educational scene.
After the observations, the children were asked to imitate the above characters and practice and pass the test in a realistic 3D setting. Because the children are very fond of role-playing, and at the same time have a strong ability to imitate, the learning effect is twice the result with half the effort.
Self-protection and self-rescue ability
Without safety, there is no education", I believe every parent and educator unanimously agrees.
The core content of safety education is safety knowledge, self-protection ability and emergency response ability. Due to the lack of attention of children in kindergarten and primary school, the knowledge they have learned is easy to forget, and it is inconvenient to participate in dangerous safety drills, safety education has always been a job for teachers to "burn their brains".
The safety education course of the immersive interactive classroom presents safety education scenarios such as drowning, fire, and traffic through three-dimensional technology, allowing children to have interactive experiences in the virtual scene, which plays a positive role in enhancing children's safety awareness and self-protection and self-rescue ability.
Sensory integration ability
Third-party survey data show that 80% of children have varying degrees of sensory integration disorder, and 20% of them reach a severe degree.
The reason for this situation is not only the overprotection of children by parents and grandparents, and the lack of necessary physical exercise from an early age, but also the teaching method of long-term meditation and listening in kindergartens and primary schools, which emphasizes "reading aloud and writing silently".
The interactive course of the immersive interactive classroom requires the children to exercise wholeheartedly, and interact with dozens of actions such as running, jumping, drilling, and climbing, so that the children's sensory integration ability can be fully exercised in the learning process and become more physically and mentally healthy.
Objectively speaking, the integration and innovation of immersive technology with preschool and primary education is still in its infancy, and more exploration and accumulation are needed. However, its immersion, experience, interactivity and other characteristics are just in line with the nature of children who love exploration, sports and games, and the teaching effect is worthy of affirmation.
It should be emphasized that immersive technology is only a tool for education and teaching, and it is necessary to continuously enrich and improve the curriculum system according to the compulsory education curriculum plan and curriculum standards to improve the learning experience, so as to play a greater role in the innovation of teaching methods for preschool and primary education.
